The first sentence is crucial: @mu.social works with any #atproto account. Apps or platforms that require you to migrate your account to their infrastructure to use their app are a huge red flag 🚩

Teken vandaag nog tegen Israëls E1-project ❌ Deze grootschalige nederzettingenuitbreiding dreigt de Westelijke Jordaanoever in tweeën te delen, Palestijnse gemeenschappen verder te scheiden en maakt een vreedzame toekomst in Palestina en Israël nog moeilijker. paxvoorvrede.nl/acties/breek...

This is one of the ideas behind @eurosky.social: shared European social infrastructure operated as a commons, providing a foundation on which hundreds of different applications and businesses can grow. We need the infrastructure that allows the next generation of European social media to emerge.

2 days ago I had the opportunity to participate in the European Commission‘s workshop on the future of social networks in Europe, together with researchers, entrepreneurs, policymakers, investors and civil society representatives.

Wow!

Dit moet stoppen. Financiële instellingen moeten níet investeren in foute wapenbedrijven en duidelijke grenzen stellen in hun beleid. Stop met investeren in oorlog. paxvoorvrede.nl/nieuws/welke...

Terwijl geweld tegen burgers in Palestina en Soedan voortduurt, wordt binnen de EU de defensie-industrie in toenemende mate zelfs als ‘duurzaam’ bestempeld. Wapenleveranties aan hoog-risicolanden verlengen conflicten en vergroten het menselijk leed.

Uit ons onderzoek blijkt dat de grootste Europese pensioenfondsen en verzekeraars in 2025 samen voor 5,9 miljard euro belegd in wapenproducenten die wapens verkopen aan staten waar een hoog risico bestaat dat deze bijdragen aan mensenrechtenschendingen.

Brand-new: my Sidonius Apollinaris Selected Letters on the shelf at @athenaeum.nl in Amsterdam. #lateantiquity #epistolography #sidoniusapollinaris

Last Monday, 23 February, at the Radboud University, I had the honour of presenting Prof. Daniël den Hengst with the first copy of my Green & Yellow volume of commentary, Sidonius Apollinaris: Selected Letters (www.cambridge.org/nl/universit...).

All the CSEL volumes prior to 2010 now available in PDF online. This is really going to bring the CSEL series right to the front of everyone's minds. Someone over there is being very clever.

Review in Vigiliae Christianae of Christine Schmitz, Mythen und kein Ende: Zum Umgang mit Mythen in der lateinischen Literatur der Spätantike, Stuttgart 2025. #mythology #earlychristianity brill.com/view/journal...

The Brill Companion to Rome, c. 400- c. 1050, co-edited by Caroline Goodson and myself, will be published on 22 January (online) and on 19 February (print). There will be a hybrid book launch on the eve of the online publication. More info here 👇 www.uni-erfurt.de/fileadmin/Bi...

Congratulations! It might be useful to post a list of the letters selected. I had trouble finding one even on the publishers website. This is the best I could find, from the preview's table of contents.

This workshop has not been advertised that much, but for anyone interested in Late Antique Latin historiography and recent groundbreaking developments in our understanding of it this looks extremely interesting. I am really sad I will not be able to attend.

George and Justin's book has challenged the phantom of Kaisergeschichte, arguing for a big history work of Sextus Aurelius Victor, preserved only through abbreviations and fragments. Bleckmann expressed his scepticism of their thesis in a review of their book, dismissing it as just another model.

Bernie Sanders. Crystal clear.

I have published a letter from the 17th-century classicist Johann Georg Graevius to his French colleague Adrien de Valois, about the latter's Ammianus edition, on the blog of the Last Historians of Rome project. lasthistorians.shca.ed.ac.uk/blog/2025/12...

So pleased this is finally out: "Social Network Analysis", with my favourite writing buddy, the incomparable Máirín MacCarron, in Brill's Companion to Roman Prosopography. We hope it will be useful, also for teaching! The whole volume looks great, congrats to the editors! brill.com/display/titl...
